Property description & features

  • Freehold residential ground rent investment
  • Secured against 38 flats
  • Producing £4,250 per annum
  • The relevant Section 5b Housing Act Notices do not apply
  • Online Auction on Wednesday, 27 July 2022

Built by St George PLC in 1997, the subject building is freehold and comprises a six-storey residential block consisting of 20 two bedroom and 18 three bedroom apartments. There is undercroft parking at ground and basement levels and a timber walkway at the rear of the property. The latter will continue to be used by members of the public and like the building, the freeholder will be responsible for its maintenance (will be subject to the walkway agreement (please review legal pack for details)). 

The footprint of the building is 791.92 sqm (8,516 sq ft,).

There is a head lease for the property dated 30th December 1994, for a term of 200 years from 24th June 1989. From the head lease there are 38 sub-leases of two and three bedroom flats with parking spaces. There is also a sublease of parking space and refuse store area for 125 years commencing 24th June 1989.

All residential sub-leases are for a period of 200 years less 3 days commencing 24th June 1989. The original Lease details rents of £25 increasing on 25 March 2012 and every 15th anniversary thereafter by £25. This Lease has been varied by a Deed of Variation dated 13 July 1996 which changed the rents to £175pa and £225pa. There is a further Deed of Variation, which varied the original lease dated 30 December 1994 so that the Freeholder receives 50% of the ground rents.

The current rental income is as follows:

  • 20 x 2 bed apartments @ £200 per annum each = £4,000 per annum
  • 18 x 3 bed apartments @ £250 per annum each = £4,500 per annum

Total income is £8,500 per annum, therefore the freeholder receipt is £4,250 per annum.

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
